Where are my bookmarks from the old one? I set up an account and everything, but when I went back and updated they don't show up when I sign in

I just absolutely HATE this latest version. Even though I hate, hate, hate signing in to use any browser, I made an account with the old version that had all of my doggone book marks. Finally it updated without my even saying yes, and even when I sign in they are gone. I do NOT want to have to work so hard to have my bookmarks on a PC. NOT cool, especially when I'm going to be replacing this dinosaur this year and wanted to have my bookmarks available with the new one. TOO MUCH WORK to sync when I prefer incognito. BOO!

Since the first Win10 update about a week ago (there have been two in quick succession), pages are sometimes missing individual portions of text or in the case of the Mozilla Help home page and others, almost all of the text.
Links appear to be there but are not visible (the cursor turns to an active cursor when passed over some parts of a page).
Win10 is now at 1903 for Win 64 Firefox is now at 68.0 for 64-bit
I had to use my phone to post this because I cannot post in the Community Support portion of Help.

Firefox won't let me drag-and-drop files from automatically-opened .zip archives into Windows Explorer

I am using Windows 7 Pro SP1 64-bit (fully updated) and Firefox 68.0 64-bit.
The problem is that when I download any .zip archive and tell Firefox to "Open with... 7-Zip File Manager" (or with Windows Explorer), after the archive has finished downloading and opened in a 7-Zip window (or an Explorer window), I cannot drag-and-drop the file contained in the archive onto a Windows Explorer window or the desktop. No matter where I try to drag the file to, the Windows mouse cursor is always a "cancel" icon and won't let me drop it anywhere.
If I then close the archive window and reopen it from the download folder (C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\Temp), now I can drag-and-drop correctly.
I know that this is a problem with Firefox, because if I try the same operation with the same .zip archive using the current version of Tor Browser (8.5.4 32-bit (based on Mozilla Firefox 60.8.0esr)) or with Internet Explorer (11.0.9600.19399) I do not have this problem.
Any help would be appreciated.

Plain and simple it's impossible to get Firefox Quantum to increase font size or magnification size and *stay that way* either between restarts of Firefox or when another tab is openend. Addons and plugins don't work, instructions for how to hack it are all over the place. Me? I'm moving all my bookmarks over to Chrome which in spite of all the controversy makes it a breeze to increase font and/or magnification size and keep it that way.

Hi,
I'm a longtime Firefox user and 62.0.3 works flawlessly on my Windows 10 PC. However, every version since then - and I've tried them all, right up to 68.0 - has been unstable. The browser hangs and/or crashes and every time reverting to 62.0.3 instantly fixes the problem. This is now quite an old version, though, and I'm concerned that by using it I'm exposing myself to security issues. Any ideas?

What the heck is this? Why did silly mozila messed up the development of local files? How can I bypass that WITHOUT ALTERING my code? It broke fontawesome functionality! Very stupid!
Shift + underscore causes the console to pop up constantly. Can't use the shift key properly on Firefox. Some kind of glitch.
Every time I press the shift underscore key, the console keeps popping up when I just need the "____" to appear.
Created New Firefox Account Instead of Linking Old Mozilla Account-What Steps To Take?

Please answer each question separately:
Even though Google is my default search engine, I have selected the remaining 6 default options under 'One Click' Search Engines.
When I type a letter, it brings up searches for my default Google but the icons for the other search engines are in the bottom left corner.
1. Am I supposed to click on one of the icons to bring up a search for that particular search engine OR is my address bar search supposed to show searches for all seven search engines?
2. When 'Never Remember History' is selected, am I still able to select the 'One Click Search Engines' that will automatically be displayed the next time that 'Remember History' is selected OR can I only choose the one-click search engine options when 'Remember History' is selected?
3. Before signing into my old account, I noticed that users have to create a new Firefox account, even if they have an existing account, so that is what I did-Is that what I was supposed to do?
4. With this new account, will I automatically receive an email notification when someone responds to my thread?
5. Periodically, when signing in with my new account, I receive a 'Bad Request 400' message. Other times, I am able to sign in but the top right corner does not show me as signed in so I have to sign in again; Are these known glitches?

This is a fairly recent issue. The browser is up to date and runs fine except it mostly doesn't want to hide/minimize when clicking the - in the right corner. If I close and reopen it it works for a bit and stops shortly after. This is super annoying as I use this ALL the time for my work. Any idea... ? thanks

Why does FF Sync move and unpin my Top sites?

From similar issues w/FF, I can only guess my problems w/losing settings is due to User.js file OR my use of Ublock Origin. Now I turn off Ublock once in a while as I've learned it may be causing FF to give me the "page not found/server" error page.
Seems to me by using Sync FF should be able to keep Tops sites where they should be and keep them pinned. Make no sense to me.
Anyhow, trying to read the How to fix preferences page but I gotta hang it up and get some sleep.
Thanks for any input. Hopefully the .js solution will work w/o hosing any Add-ons, etc.

I always have two tabs set to open on startup. Just recently, the tabs switched to two separate windows, each with the two tabs. When I close one, both close. I don't know why this happened , though undoubtedly I did something and forgot. I am not especially technical. I cannot get FF to go back to the single instantiation with the two tabs. Any help would be gratefully received.
I just noticed. this happens whenever I open a tab, it becomes a new window as well as being added as a tab.

Once again, Firefox is making multiple processes in the task manager. I've already set both browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2 and browser.tabs.remote.autostart to false, yet I still have multiple processes anyway, and setting the content process limit to 1 doesn't seem to do anything. I'm using Firefox version 68.0 and running Window 7.

Hours and hours wasted trying to stop floating videos, pop-unders and overlays. DO NOT tell me to do about:config ! I did it all through exhaustive research. No effect. The solutions are all over the place and VERY repetitious. Every permutation of suggested FF fixes have been tried. Am a very savvy Windows user... It goes round and round and round and round and round in circles...
Daily I am plagued by floating videos, pop-unders and overlays. It never ends. Once again -- DO NOT tell me to do any more about:config -- it has all been tied an tested. All the settings are as suggested...

Hello, yesterday I tried to install an update on my computer that caused the computer to shut down. When the computer restarted my settings in firefox had changed (although I don't think Firefox updated or anything). My search engine options are now just Bing, Amazon, and Ebay. I know how to add more search engines. I went to the preferences page->search-> find more search engines. But when the list of available search engines comes up, google is missing. There's search google images, google translate, every other country's google you can imagine, but default US Google is not there. Where did it go? Why can't I find it?
